Authority Activation?

If this is your first time (not reactivation) right at 3 weeks. Be sure and check on your mcs150. I think that's the name. File it as soon as you can and if it won't let you do it on line, OOIDA can do it for $25 and have it done in the blink of an eye.

 

21 days min from when you got your numbers. Fmsca takes about 2 days after the get the info from your insurance comapny

Dont forget about ucr registration too

 

I wasnt sure on that either. My authority went active last month Was active 2 business days after I binded my insurance. That was a relief

 

If you are a member of OOIDA, they will do the process agents for free.

 

I remember the last thing I was waiting on was the IFTA sticker. Texas was really slow. Each state is a little different. I read somewhere here that some states will let you pick up the IFTA sticker.

 

You get a paper ifta temp permit until the stickers come in. That's what I'm using now. Been 2 maybe 3 weeks

 

That’s good to know for the newbies. It wasn’t a big deal for me as I still took another week to get my business organized and ready to roll.
